Purely Paris
This vibrant blue jacket is pure Coco Chanel couture. Plush cuffs and collar created with textured stitches of super-bulky, multicolored yarn offer a stunning contrast to the single-color body worked in smooth, solid stitches in medium-weight yarn. The removable collar can be worn as a separate neck-piece.
